Jason Bird was born on 21st May, 1979 in Middlesex, England. His family moved to Perth when he was eight years old. Jason is the second youngest of a family with three sisters and two brothers.

Jason was a born performer. He used to make his family listen and watch his impersonations of his favourite pop stars and would get quite upset when they did not pay FULL ATTENTION to his performance!

Jason's first performing job was as a dancer and choreographer which took him to Singapore for six months. Back in Perth, while continuing as a dancer, he also managed a major music store.

Last year, Jason and brother Simon decided to move to Melbourne to further their careers. Three months later, they both auditioned for POPSTARS.

Jason said of this experience: "All my life I have worked and waited for an opportunity like this and now to be given one is a dream come true. Without the tremendous support of my family and friends, I would not be here now. To become a 'popstar' I am realising that a great group of any sort is not made up of perfect individuals, but is a perfect balance of strengths and weaknesses combined, working towards a mutual goal."
